Does this help with more money for 2027 for royal?

Man that sucks for A&M trying to recruit him in November

So does Texas get another corner in this class? And do they get another 5 star flip to make up for the drop in the recruiting rankings because Meredith reclassed?

Good question. Will dig, but I don't think it changes a ton. It allows Meredith to leave a year earlier, so perhaps the calculus does change in that regard.

How old is Meredith?  Is he expected to be at the start of fall practice?

I like this whole re-classifying thing.

For those wondering, Texas moved up to 6th for the 2026 247 recruiting rankings, and dropped down to 6th in the 2027 rankings with Meredith’s reclassification.

Meredith and Smoke Matthews in the same class is pretty amazing. Plus Howard Hayward. Best corner class ever?

He’ll see the light at Kyle field and immediately transfer. It’s the yell leaders that’ll get it done.

No on best corner class ever at Texas… probably won’t even end up being close being 100

With the addition of Meredith, does Texas move Bishop back to working with the WRs or will he still train at DB?

Bishop was already going to train with the WR group this fall.
